SODELPA youth wing to deliver manifesto by end of month

Campaigning by the newly-launched youth wing of the Social Democratic Liberal Party has moved up a gear with a direct pitch to young voters.

The newly-formed wing has distributed a survey aimed at gauging how many youth have enrolled for the September elections and how they're likely to vote.

The Youth Vote Survey asks youth how much 'attention' they're paying to the coming poll and whether they think the country is moving in the right direction.

The 15-question questionnaire also tries to get a handle on what economic issues concern youth, their views on education, international relations and the national debt.It also asks them to rate the performance of the interim government.

The newly-elected president of SODELPA's youth wing, Pita Waqavonovono, released the survey yesterday saying it will help with their preparations for a Youth Manifesto.

"The SODELPA Youth wing has been given the green-light to work on a Manifesto that will feed into the main Party's Manifesto.

"We have promised the party's General Secretary that by the end of March, a completed Youth Manifesto will be delivered to his desk."

Waqavonovono says while they've issued the survey to help gather information, their reading is ' young people want to be engaged and affect Party Politics.'

"Many have begun to engage with the Wing and we are working to effectively gather more views that will be formulated into our Youth Manifesto."

Waqavonovono says the survey was designed after 'careful consideration and discussion with young SODELPA member's 'and contains serious questions that we need your views on.'

"There are also spaces where you can elaborate or bring up issues that you deem relevant."

The survey will be distributed and collected by volunteers and can also be sent directly to the Council Secretary:

Laisani Qaqanilawa

SODELPA Main Office

SUVA

Social media, including its Facebook 'Sodelpa National Youth Council Forum', is also being used to get information out.

Here is a copy of the SODELPA Youth Survey, which can also be accessed online via this link: https://apps.facebook.com/my-surveys/sodelpayouthsurvey.

Mr Narayan said Fiji's economy was not growing and the country was getting into major debts.

He added that if PDP wins the polls, it would reinstate the rule of law.

"No rule of law means the law is applied differently to the supporters of the government and the ... decrees in place bar community leaders — the unionists — from participating in political activities, so that itself is not an even playing field."

@ Anon 1.03pm..Who care's about who's who in the army.Fuck them all. They have brought misery to the nationWhat we need is some sensible people who can bring the nation out of this rut.Let's get the elections going which is probably our only solution, despite the controvesies surrounding it

Imagine that -- a political party that actually seeks the views of young people in this country! And a survey that doesn't ask loaded questions! This is a good step by SODELPA. I'd now like to see SODELPA do more to try to widen its kaidia support through active recruitment and emphasis on restoring the protection of minority rights through the rule of law.

Print this pageEmail this pageThe Marama Na Roko Tui Dreketi, Ro Teimumu Kepa is expected to become the new leader of the Social Democratic and Liberal Party this afternoon.

A Special General Assembly meeting will be held this afternoon where the Management Board who have already appointed the leader will make the public announcement.

Other people who applied for the top post included Ratu Jone Kubuabola, Dr Tupeni Baba, Anare Jale and Ratu Meli Saukuru.

However Saukuru withdrew his application as he said that he respects Ro Teimumu as she will be a strong leader.

Tabaiwalu said discussions today will focus on the appointment of the party candidates contesting the elections, the endorsement of the Women's and Youth Councils and the party's constitution amendments.

Tabaiwalu said a big turnout is expected as party supporters from the West and the North will also be present at the FTA Hall this afternoon.

USP has become a disgrace under VC Rajesh Chandra. It has become a cesspool of conformism. The USP fat cats want everyone at the university – staff and students – to conform quietly to the diktats of the Bainimarama military regime.what a shame?A university by definition is a place for divergent views, of contested opinions – an agora.But not USP.It is a meow meow place!

Ro Teimumu is the right choice. With the courageous and principled stands she has taken over the years, she's the best candidate for the job. And when, not if, Bainimarama steals the election, she is the one whose leadership we can best mobilise behind, whatever our political party.

A NEW DEGREE IS ON THE MAKING BY AIASS KAYUMI TO STOP SODELPA YOUTH SURVEY..............GO PITA GO---WE ALL THE YOUTH AT USP AND FNU AND ALL OVER FIJI ADMIRE YOUR COURAGE FOR FREEDOM FOR ALL...........WE VOTE YOUR PARTY SODELPA----ONLY TO TAKE BAI TO COURT FOR MURDER AND APOLISING 1997 CONSTITUTION

Make no difference bring the marama Roko Tui Dreketi ...they are using her title for the party. Polotiki makawa ga...

Being a poor normal fijian, I am enjoying what the current gov is providing, free school fees, bus fare, ...my what would SODELP to fijian, GCC....burden to the itaukei Constitution ..yes just a document, but wont pay school fees for my kids.

Isa lei Rabuka not considered. Sign of desperation to choose an adulteress. What economics knowledge does she have to run the country? A home-breaker, a husband snatcher chosen to lead the racist party. Only 50 people was there at the meeting not a big crowd as being told.

wailei ...pita go and finish your studies first..most of fijian cant read brother..how will they fill in your questionnaire..you look like a joke with SODELPA ...stop supporting an adulteress..she will use you or already using you since you are the young (not so young...you look gase) one amongst them ..olei ..taki brother

Hey PITA, SDL youth wing can do something tangible for the youths than just open big mouth and talk. Can it organise a petition among USP students to protest against harassment and bullying during Indonesian diplomats address? How come so-called SDL not even out put statement yet? this is a major youth issue staring at your face!

Do you have the guts? No you don't because your mother is employed by VC Rajesh Chandra on a fat salary. you will not upset the apple cart, will you Pita? Where are your principles now Pita? Or are you just like your SDL mentors - corrupt, useless and all talk no balls.

@SDL Youth Wing, Pit Waqavonovono is not genuinely interested about youth welfare. He is just interested in fancy positions and titles, pushing the SDL racist/nationalist poltical agenda and basking in the limelight and media attention. The youth wing is just a cover.

Go ahead noqu tagane, despite vocal opposition from the periphery because it is understandable that people are threatened by your bold move. Toso ga boy you are the shining light to our youth and your exposure and experience plus your determination is creating fear amongst those who support evil.

Thank God for someone like your age who can stand against the strong current of deceit and lie.

People who are fighting you are all losers because they have nothing positive to contribute to the stability of our great nation.

Look at him @6:06, 6:33; 6:41 all he talks about is "adultery".What else to say about this lowlife except that "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks".

He is a small man, whose heart is filled with sexual immorality.May be he is impotent or someone sexually assaulted him as a child.In all his postings, all he talks about is "racism" and "adultery".What a fuckwit!And he cant even get the name of the party right, calling it SDL & not SODELPA.

That puts him in the category of an UNEDUCATED FUCKWIT.

Lets ALL VOTE SODELPA and get rid off small-minded uneducated nitwits.

US president Bill Clinton was impeached for giving his donger to a female inturn. Here we have people saying that it's ok for someone like Teimumu Kepa to have an affair and someone who is a known homosexual as a youth leader to be leaders of Fiji. She talks about Christianity to be brought back and yet she molests a younger man who is married. Where to for here SODELPA. You openly show the relationship with Labour Party which we all know is anti-itaukei. Look at the photos of people attending the announcement of SODELPA leader. There are no credible people there. Looks like a bunch of street people looking for some free chow.

It cracks me up reading these pathetic comments by what are probably just one or two regime trolls. Obviously The Lady and Boy Wonder have them running scared.

I don't know if Ro Teimumu is an adultress, and it really isn't my business. But I do know Bainimarama is a traitor, which is very much my business, and, in fact, my duty to oppose.

One troll writes that the Constitution is just a paper. That is the mindset of a traitor. For me, the Constitution is the basic law of the land and the expression of the people's will. We will never advance as a country unless we begin respecting the rule of law.

I like Rabuka on a personal level, and I know he's much brighter than Bainimarama. But I'm glad if SODELPA didn't consider his candidacy. Treason should disqualify one from office.

A troll suggests that Pita finish his studies. I suggest the troll finish his own.

Then there is the question about Ro Teimumu's economic credentials. I know from personal experience how very concerned and involved she has been in developing her people's livelihood. And presumably her cabinet would include a Minister for Finance.

Now, what are Bainimarama's economic credentials? Also, we've already seen how his arrogance and greed causes him to clutch the Finance Ministry and other cabinet portfolios for which he has zero qualifications.

Let's see the Public Auditor reports for the past several years to see how good a job he's done as a administrator. Let's see an independent outside audit of his PM's Flood Relief Fund. And where is the financial disclosure statement he promised us a year ago? Why do other candidates need to file, but he does not?

Bainimarama's coups have cost Fiji billions in lost revenue. He devalued our dollar by ten per cent. He cut our retirement pensions in half. He sold off state assets. He quadrupled our debt, saddling us with higher-interest loans just to avoid greater scrutiny of how he uses the money. He's skimming millions from the Chinese and his cronies.

Bus fare and school fees are a pittance when you compare them against what he's already stolen.

He's stolen our government just to avoid paying for his crimes. And he's mortgaged our children's future just to pay for his election.

Why can’t USP students protest against the Indonesian Ambassador on university campus?I think the Indonesian Ambassador would be the first person to acknowledge the place of protest in society. After all it was protest on the streets by the Indonesian people that eventually “got rid of dictator Soeharto in 1998 and ushered in a new era of democracy” in Indonesia (‘Editorial: Indonesians decide today’ Jakarta Posts 9/4/2009). Witnessing a protest demonstration would be a very familiar sight for any Indonesian Ambassador because that’s something that happens in Indonesia all the time.

So who’s agenda was the USP serving by denying the students their right to protest or worse threatening to kick them out of university as is being alleged?

USP is regional in name only. In reality it is a Fiji university. Fiji government giving most money and most students are from Fiji. So Fiji regime calling all the shots. having a weak, puppet VC in Rajesh Chandra helps. Under Rajesh Chandra regionalism of USP has been diluted like never before, regardless of some token carrots thrown at regional countries in the form of campus development. Bulk of decision making is done by Fiji government and bulk of development occurs in Fiji. Other countries get leftovers. Rajesh Chandra is a Bainimarama and Khaiyum man first.

Clinton had affair, Tikoitoga did, as did so many army officers, big deal if Ro Teimumu did. Far bigger sins have been committed by Bainimarama, Nur Bano Ali, Khaiyum and cohorts. Do your best to dirty Teimumu's name, but it won't work, She will get the votes

In fact The chairman of the Electoral Commission, Chen Bunn Young should enforce the rules that Bainimarama's government laid down for Political Parties etc.

In fact right now Chen Young should declare that Bainimarama ineligible, because the closing date for forming a Party was over months ago.

So Chen should enforce the rule. Otherwise he would be seen as just another PUPPET OF THE REGIME.ie ALL TALK, NO SUBSTANCE.

If Bai just does whatever he likes without following the rules then what's the point of having an Electoral Commission.In fact what's the point of having an Election.

Already we see that this arsehole is just making up his own rules as he goes and he does not even keep his own rules. What a total farkhead.NO ONE SHOULD VOTE FOR BAINIMARAMA. HE IS A LAWLESS CRIMINAL.

HE SHOULD BE TRIED FOR TREASON AND BE PUNISHED APPROPRIATELY BY HANGING.

Satnarayan, PDP Secretary has been using Saraswati School workers on his farm as labourers. Wages are paid from Saraswati School Fund. most school committee members now are uneducated locals who do not know what is going on in school and with its funds.His son and daughter are given hefty pay for doing nothing.

Ausaid fund to the tune of $270000.00 has been misused by him. This fund money was never deposited in the school account.No accountability what so ever.

Ficac must investigate this man. If you are reading this article Satnarayan, know now that what goes round comes round. You will be exposed and that is for sure....You will never be allowed to fool people of Fiji for your own name and gain... Just wait and see...

So Peter Waqavonvono bats for the other side. So Ro Teimumu is an adultress. Who cares. The real issue is what the hell they have in common with Mahen, Pratap and Mick. These idiots are getting under the one umbrella thinking they can knock off the Bai and then live happily ever after. But the voters aren't that stupid. They never got along before so why would they get along now. It's all about "my enemy's enemy is my friend" and nothing else. Think about it. How can kai idia voters possibly vote for kai idia leaders who want a Christian state and to bring back the chiefs. It is not going to work. They are all going to vote for the Bai. Meanwhile what has the average i'Taukei got in common with these other jokers. Nothing.

Agree with previous posting. When Frank saw all these political leaders together yesterday he would have had a big laugh. Why would any Indo-Fijian support "bringing God back" or bringing back the GCC? They will all go for Frank, Then if enough i'Taukei back him he wins. Easy.

Anon: March 7, 2014 at 2:11 PM ANDAnon: March 7, 2014 at 5:20 PM WHAT YOU NEED TO DO NOW RATHER THAN BEING A CIVILIAN TERROR ON THIS BLOG IS TO OPEN YOUR BIG MOUTH AND MONEY WIDE OPEN TO THE PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR YOU AND YOUR POLITICAL PARTY IN THE GENERAL ELECTION IN SEPTEMBER BECAUSE 4000 SOLDIERS STRENGTH IN THE ARMY IS 125 TIMES WEAKER THEN YOU VOTERS.

I GUARANTEE YOU THAT NOT ALL THE 4000 SOLDIERS CARRYING GUNS WILL VOTE FOR BAINIMARAMA AND KAIYUM. PLEASE MISTER STOP SWEARING AND BEING ABUSIVE TO THE WHOLE RANKS AND FILES IN THE ARMY BECAUSE SOME OF THEM DO VALUE THEIR TRADITIONS, CUSTOMS, CULTURE, RELIGIOUS RESPECT AND ALLEGIANCE TO THE VANUA & LOTU. THE NEED TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES IS MOST IMPORTANT TOO FOR THEM TO CARRY GUNS AROUND YESTERDAYS.

8 YEARS ON THE ROUGH ROAD IS STRONG ENOUGH FOR THEM TO UNDERSTAND AND IDENTIFY GOOD AND EVIL PLAYERS AND ONE DAY SOON IT WILL BE OVER FOR ALL THOSE EVIL CORRUPTIBLE SERVING OFFICERS IN THE ARMY, NAVY, POLICE,CIVIL SERVANTS AND BIG BUSINESS PEOPLE.

The biggest winner was multiculturalism and fiji yesterday.Now the election will no longer be run on racial lines. A good thing is GGC may be bought back. I think there has to be affirmative actions for Fijians, eg Itaukei Scholarship. Now the election will be based on policies. Well done Fiji. It is a great country and the relationship between two races is one of its kind in the world. We have common understanding and love for each other. Generally people in Fiji are good.

The Opinion Polls are causing panick and havoc to other Political Parties.The recent meet to select its leader could hardly make the numbers to make a quorom,that was the reason for postponing the first meet,no quorom,isa,the final vote count could cause some people to commit suicide,its time Sodelpa employ a chaplain to prevent members from committing suicide.

Sorry, but I disagree that it's not important that Ro Teimumu is an adultress. It is about her character and Fijians trusting her to lead. If she steals someone elses husband that is disgraceful. She is a high chief and is supposed to set an example. She is also a leading member of the Catholic Church. You can't be PM if you are a hipocrite. She is not fit to be PM.

Fiji Sun poll today has Frank on 76 per cent, three points down on last week, and SODELPA slightly up. Could be interesting now that Ro Teimumu is in the race but I am scared of what happens if she loses. Won't It will be another nail in the coffin of the chiefs?

Am I seeing this right? SODELPA is led by a husband thief and its youth wing by a homosexual? OH GREAT! Couldn't we done better than this!!! We need to get rid of Bainimarama and Khaiyum not give them a FREE BLOODY KICK!!

Heard zakia Dean the wannabe Fdb ceo has changed her Facebook page after all her shady dealings with the ceo and aiyass kulina came out... shes also been hunting for the whistle blowers by getting IT dept to monitor everyone's computer and emails...

Teimumu and Waqavono is scarying the sheets out of regime supporters, that is why are going hard out with the character assassination. My adviceto Waqavonovono and Teimumu:keep your eyes on the prize and don't be distracted by the smear campaign. Get your message out to the youth and the people and build your profile as solid, trustworthy citizens who have no history of treason or criminal activity against Fiji. Five months is not a long time, especially with Bainimarama who has been buying votes for the past two years.

Adding on to what Yes We Can says, build your base. Don't just get your message out but build your contact lists and organisations. Prepare in advance for the likelihood that you will need to call on the people and international community to support Fijian democracy when Frank betrays us again by robbing or canceling the election. Be ready to mobilise.

VERY GOOD QUANI RERE: "Bainimarama said that all those who want to run for election must declare their wealth and monetary interests.Since Bainimarama now wants to stand for election, can he please declare ALL his wealth and income and overseas accounts.If a politician does not declare ALL, will he be thrown in jail?WHAT ABOUT BAINISONAS ACCOUNTS OVERSEAS?Bainimarama must declare ALL that he owns, including WAQAVUKA INVESTMENTS in Ireland.If he does not declare his accounts in Ireland, India, China, Pakistan then the Police should throw him in Jail...."

In Fiji everything goes as long as it is the ethno-nationalists are doing it - coups, adultery, homosexuality, extreme racism, sale of native land, robbery of NBF, misallocation of A-class shares; agri scam, etc, etc; excuses and justifications will be found to forgive all the name of christ. when rambo did coup, it was ok, god told him to do it; when speight did coup followed by big sex orgy and vu worship in parliament, it was ok too. when bainimarama did coup, it was not ok! People are inspired by racism, and greed for power, and jealously, not morality, so stuff you holier-than-thou attitude where sun don't shine.

Such a sigh of relief after a very long time to read of SODELPA's views of the future should it be elected to govern Fiji. Fiji will only prosper if the interest of the indigenous people are protected and so as every other races - not the bullshit "We are all Fijians" crap that is purely a masquerade to remove all indigenous rights! I suppose Bai's too dumb to see that. After all, he has swallown the "help yourself to the government coffers" bait of Khaiyum and is fully blinded.

I WILL VOTE SODELPA if they maintain their focus on issues as reported today like:

1. Reinstate the Great Council of Chiefs2. Restore God to His rightful place in Fiji's supreme law3. Bring back the i Taukei and Multi Ethnic scholarships4. Revoke any restrictive Decrees on fundamental freedoms & political and civil rights5. Remove all restrictions on the Methodist church

My Indian brothers & sisters and other races too, mark my word! If parties that think alike pursue the above and include policies that protect basic indigenous rights and all other races too, Fiji will truly be a paradise that we all want it to be.

The present government policies have only created hatred amongst its people.

We can live peacefully now that far sightedness and genuiness in leadership has at last come!

FRANK BAINIMARAMA, THANK YOU FOR THIS IS THE LEVEL PLAYING FIELD YOU & KAIYUM WERE THROWING ABOUT FROM ONE END OF A VILAGE TO OTHER VILLAGES, OPENING A MEETING TO MANY MEETINGS.

YOU DID MAKE A POLITICAL HEAD START SPEECHES BY USING TAX PAYERS MONEY BY SAYING TO VOTERS NOT TO PICK OLD POLITICIANS AND THOSE WITH PERSONAL AGENDA ETC. ETC.. LATER ON YOU PICKED OLD POLITICIAN LIKE JIM AH KOY, MANU KOROVULAVULA, RT INOKE KUBUABOLA, JALE BABA, FILIPE BOLE, RATU TUAKITAU COKANAUTO, JOKETANI COKANASIGA, PADAM LALA, HIMAT LODHIA, GYANSH CHAND AND CHARAN JEATH SINGH.

WHAT A WONDERFUL CROOKS THEY ARE AND THEY ARE THE BEST IN THE COUNTRY IN THAT PROFESSION FOR TRADING LIARS AND BULLDUSTS. REMEMBER BAINIMARAMA THEY WERE WITH RATU MARA, RABUKA, QARASE AND YOUR GOODSELF AS PRIME MINISTERS. THEY ARE THE MASTER OF MANIPULATION, CORRUPTION AND CONSPIRACY OF FIJI (MMCCF. YOU ALREADY ARE DEAD MEAT FRANK.

BEWARE OF SIR JIM AH KOY. THE SIR THAT FIJI DID NOT GIVE HIM PNG GAVE IT TO HIM BECAUSE HE KNEW THE RULES OF DECEIT AND DECEIVE.

THE POLITICAL GAME JUST STARTED AND I AM WARNING YOU, PLEASE DO NOT DARE TO STOP THE ONSLAUGHT OF POLITICAL SPEECHES IF THE HEAT IS TOO HOT FOR YOU BY ISSUING ANOTHER DECREE OR CALL FOR BRIG. GEN. MOSESE TIKOITOGA TO COME IN BEFORE THE ELECTION TIME BECAUSE WHAT I SAID IS THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT THOSE MASTERS OF MCCF I NAMED ABOVE.

FRANK BAINIMARAMA, YOU A NEW BOY ON THE POLITICAL BLOCK, SO BETTER SAY YOUR PRAYERS AND ASK MUSLIM KAIYUM & CO FOR THE ESCAPE ROUTES.

SITIVENI LIGAMAMADA RABUKA IS AN INJURED TIGER FOR LOSING THE SODELPA’S PRESIDENCY ELECTION. S.L.R. PLEASE JUST TOW THE LINE & PROVE YOURSELF ONCE AGAIN TO BECOME A LEADER. THE PEOPLE HAD SPOKEN ON SATURDAY AT THE FTA HALL.

Anon 2:06, i have never supported the ethno-nationalists or condoned the things you cite. But why no mention of the ethno-nationalists in Frank's cabinet? Why no recruitment of kaidia by the RFMF? What about the homosexuality of his CJ and others? What about the regime's rampant corruption? What about Frank's leading role in planning and executing the 2000 coup? Or is it that in the New Fiji everything goes, as long as Frank is doing it?

Racism, greed for power, and jealousy might inspire you and your ilk, but you don't speak for the rest of us. Some of us want honest, unselfish people who have the courage to defend Fiji.

The trolls on your side are the ones trying to make an issue of morality, always harping on the alleged sexual immorality of Ro Teimumu and Pita Waqavonovono. We're not harping about Frank's sexual immorality. I don't really care who he's banging, if it's consensual. I won't disqualify someone from elective office because of their sexual pecadillos. But don't ever ask me to support murderers and traitors.

You seem to think morality doesn't matter. I think it matters a lot. But all have sinned, and all have fallen short of the glory of God. Who's sins are the more serious, and who continues in his sin?

So, morality still matters, and so do humanity, patriotism, and respect for the rule of law. Frank fails on every count. Try to dress him up anyway you like, and try to distract us anyway you can, but there's no getting away from the fact that this man is a murderer and traitor who doesn't deserve to be elected. He deserves to hang.

""Bainimarama said that all those who want to run for election must declare their wealth and monetary interests.Since Bainimarama now wants to stand for election, can he please declare ALL his wealth and income and overseas accounts.If a politician does not declare ALL, will he be thrown in jail?WHAT ABOUT BAINISONAS ACCOUNTS OVERSEAS?Bainimarama must declare ALL that he owns, including WAQAVUKA INVESTMENTS in Ireland.If he does not declare his accounts in Ireland, India, China, Pakistan then the Police should throw him in Jail...."..."

Latest news. Malaysia airlines mh370 lost. No survivors so far. Given the fact that your site makes out that even a bird farting is the govts fault, just wondering if this is also the interim govts fault? How are aiyaz and Frank linked to this? Perhaps they blinked?

The name " Social Democratic Liberal Party" is a contradiction to party's philosophy and the leadership. SODELPA is a NATIONALIST party and neither Democratic nor Liberal. Now with the leadership of a person with a track record of Nationalist and Anti-Indo-Fijian what can we expect next? I was hoping for someone with better outlook and someone that is truly up with time to take up the leadership. Personally I approve ans would accept Rabuka before I would accept Teimumu Kepa. Teimumu spells trouble. Her record is not one that anyone could or would brag about. I was leaning towards voting for SODELPA, but sorry now Bai/ Kai would make better of 2 evils.

hahaha, Fiji is still so dark, primitive and behind, obsessed with private parts - cunt, arse, shit, f-word, doggie style, cougher, uncircumcised, expulsion of indians, go back to cannibalism, etc, etc. this is what we have been discussing last 8 years.

The following two links will make you realise how primitive, negative, inconsequential, immature Fiji is wider scheme of things. click the links if you dare, see what the great minds talk about while we wallow in coups, racism and other shit:

Don't think that SODELPA need theChorro FLP for support-Chodo isonly worried about himself.TheIndians have cast him aside afterthey realised that he was only using them for his own riches?heused the money he collected fromIndians to put his children through school and buys them house& cars etc,etc? He knows that theIndians were going to tossed himaside and he figured, whose the best organization to kiss up too? Yep,SODELPA, they're still popular withthe Itaukei and will definitelywin hands down, if the election is clean? What a bastard & a fraudthis maichod is, and someone needsto hanged this bastard before hescrew things up for democracy?Those of you writting from abroadplease stay there and don't come back, you can support your herosBHai & Khai from where you're atand just let us know if you want you're entire family packed on aboat and sent to your address- abroad? Also, if you want we'll send you Bhai&Khai dead bodies- in a caskets or boxes so you can pray to them everyday? the two macafakaare going to be tried & hanged &no doubt about that?

At least SODELPA has started the election process on a trully democratic note, by electing its leader. It has elected its management board, and its youth and women's wings.What a way to kick start our - the people's return to democratic government. Making the people decide and choose. All the crountry's intending leaders will be put through the same test in September, through a process that we also hope, will be trully democratic.

Never mind Ro Teimumu's colourful sexual history. At 68, she is just too old for any young voter to support her. It was a big mistake to put her in because the youth vote will decide the election. If you look at the polling, Voreqe already seems to have that vote on side. It is all very well to head a political party but she does not have what it takes to run a government. It will be all the same old pigs with their snouts in the trough and Fiji will go into reverse. Too many chiefs and only a handful of stupid Indians like Mahen and Pratap Singh. They are yesterday's men too.

TOO OLD@08:03am...the voter registration carried out by Khaiin NZ & Aussie was a huge flops?The money used by the Regime toconduct that bullshit vote registration, did not go down too well? Most Indians in NZ & Aussieare there illegally in the first place, and they don't want to register, since they don't want tobe the first, to get tossed-out of the country? Those that were caught- 779 indo- in New Zealand alone, has been issued noticed toleave the country asap? Same numbers in Aussie land as well?The indo in USA & Canada are telling Khaito go and shoved his registration up his ass-cause they don't wantto be tossed out of the country as well? So how about you TOO OLD,how lowcan you go!do you have the gutS to come out and register? Are you willing to take a chance to be the first asshole to be tossed-out of northAmerica? GO AHEAD MAKE MY DAY???Just remember,when all is said &done in September and we've backat the wheel, we may then decideto tossed you right back out, to whence you came back from? We really don't want you here?

@ TOO OLD--------- THE WAY YOU WRITE LIKE YOUR LEARNED FROM YOUR DEAD MOTHER--READ BELOW TO LEARN SOME THING NEW ;;;A vote for the Bainimarama government is a vote for the illegal constitution, the illegal means of acquiring power, a vote on illegal ways of governing and government. We have seen it in the last seven years, we have seen the killings, the torture, the abuses, the appointments to positions, the way age old institutions have been treated, how community and organisation leaders have been gagged, financial institutions rigged, pensioners sidelined, and the list goes on.A vote for political parties that promote civil liberty, human rights, equality and the principles of justice and fair play is a vote for a trully democratic Fiji where the rule of law will prevail.That is what the September election is all about.Let us make the best choice...."

THIS IS DEEP WOUNDAIYAZ KAIYUM. BECAUSE OF YOUR EVIL WAYS AND MEANS THE WHOLE MUSLIM FAMILY IN FIJI MAY GRADUALLY INNOCENTLY TORPEDOED BY OTHER RACES. NAME CALLING LIKE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, TALIBAN, AL QAIEDA, PAKISTAN ETC DOES NOT SEAT WELL IN FIJI’S PEACEFUL COMMUNITY LIKE OURS.

IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO MAKE YOUR WAY OUT IN HASTE TO SAVE YOUR SKIN BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS SURFACING VERY FAST OF YOUR EVIL INEXPERIENCE GRADUATED LAWYER, WITH NOT A SINGLE CASE EITHER CRIMINAL OR CIVIL YOU REPRESENT IN ANY FIJI COURT OF JUSTICE. YOUR FORMER EMPLOYER’S INSIDERS AND WHISTLEBLOWERS HAD DISH-OUT FRAUDULENT DOCUMENTS UNDER YOUR IRRESPONSIBLE SIGNATURES AND ADVICES. YOU WERE JUST ON THEIR FIRING LIST WHEN YOU MASTERED YOUR EVIL WAY THROUGH TO FRANK BAINIMARAMA TO SAVE YOUR FRAUDULENT ACTIVITIES WITH OTHER BUSINESS CROOKS OF FIJI TODAY. YOU LURED FRANK BAINIMARAMA TO POCKET DIRTY MONEY AND THEREAFTER CONTROL HIM AS PRIME MINISTER WITH THE HELP OF HIS MILITARY COMMANDERSHIP.

FRANK BAINIMARAMA LACKED FINANCIAL AND LEGAL MASTERS AND ADVISORS AND YOU RECOMMENDED TO HIM YOUR EVIL CORRUPTTED UNTIES, RELATIVES AND FRIENDS WHICH MADE FRANK THE MAN WHO HE IS TODAY. A CROOK AND EVIL DICTATOR FIJIAN PRIME MINISTER.

IT WAS MUSLIM THAT FIRST ENVELOPED FRANK BAINMARAMA AT THE INITIAL STAGE OF THE COUP ON THE ADVISES OF THE INSIDER, CHIEF OF STAFF AZIZ. THESE MUSLIMS MADE A VERY GOOD JOB OF AZIZ’S ADVISES TO SUIT THEIR MUSLIM AGENDAS PLANNED INSIDE THE MOSQUES IN SAMABULA AND LATER AROUND THE COUNTRY. THE GOOD MUSLIM WARNED THEM THAT SUCH MEETING MUST NOT TO BE HELD AT THE MOSQUES BUT DEAF EARS OVERULED THE WARNING. ONE OF THE AGENDA IS FOR BRIGADIER AZIZ TO BECOME THE RFMF COMMANDER. A MAN WITHOUT SOLDIERING TRAINING BUT A LAWYER, THAT WERE ABLE TO BREAK THE BAINIMARAMA’S MILITARY COUNCIL INTO PIECES, TERMINATION OF THE GREAT COUNCIL OF CHIEFS AND PRESSURIZED THE METHODIST CHURCH ALMOST TO ZERO, ORDERED BAINIMARAMA TO FORCEFULLY INSTALL THE NAME FIJIAN FOR ALL AND TERMINATE OR WEAKNED ALL POWERS AND AUTHORITIES OF THE FIJIAN RACE IN ALL ASPECT TO BETTER IMPROVEMENT AND THE CONTROL OVER THEIR LANDS AND RESOURCES. THE LAND BANK ISSUES WERE BROUGHT IN WITH LOTS OF BULLDUSTS TO WIN THE BAD MUSLIM BIDS.

MUSLIM IS THE CAUSES OF ALL THE BAD AND EVIL VIBES AMONGST ALL RACES IN FIJI AND SO AS IN BUSINESSES.

THERE ARE WONDERFUL AND BEST MUSLIMS AROUND AS FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS TOO AND THEY ARE EXEMPTED FROM THE WORDS I SAID "BAD AND EVIL".

FRANK BAINIMARAMA WAS AND IS A GOOD SOCIAL MAN BUT AIYAZ KAIYUM IS THE MAN WHO LED HIM TO EVIL AND MUST BE BLAMED FOR IT.

Ro Teimumu fear mongering, says t he PMMarch 9, 2014 | Filed under: Fiji News | Posted by: newsroom By MAIKA BOLATIKISocial Democratic Liberal Party (SODELPA) leader Ro Teimumu Kepa is offering ordinary Fijians nothing new, says Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama.“SODELPA has learned nothing. Instead of providing the country with a vision of a new Fiji, it is dragging everyone backwards by employing the same old fear-mongering tactics of the old Fiji. Every political party has the right to develop the manifesto of their choosing, but I have to point out that so much of what this leader of SODELPA says is utter nonsense.”Mr Bainimarama said: “Our nation’s new Constitution protects the rights of all Fijians, including unprecedented levels of protection of iTaukei land in the Bill of Rights. In fact, Ro Teimumu was part of a Government that eroded iTaukei land rights by allowing the conversion of native land to freehold title. The new Constitution for example gives landowners now a fair share of royalties from mining activity. There are other protections and benefits. In short, the truth is that my Government has strengthened iTaukei rights, not eroded them.“My Government has also empowered ordinary Fijians by giving them the things they need to improve their own lives and those of their families. But Ro Teimumu wants to take away that power and hand it back to a privileged elite.“In fact, all of Ro Teimumu’s comments indicate someone who wants to drag Fiji back into the past. She demonstrably avoids talking about the need to deliver basic services to ordinary Fijians – which has been the cornerstone of my Government’s reform programmes – because she was part of an SDL Government that always made false promises but never delivered.“She mentions jobs and economic growth, but what politician wouldn’t? Nowhere does she actually present any economic policies or initiatives that will create those jobs and stimulate that growth. The remarkable economic turnaround that Fiji is currently experiencing hasn’t been based on words, but on the smart and consistent policies put in place by my Government, which we will continue.”

Ro Teimumu said: “Our central goals in promoting sustained growth in all parts of the economy are to accelerate employment creation, continually improve the health and general well-being of our population, reduce income inequalities, eradicate homelessness and poverty, and ensure that Government services and the benefits of development are spread evenly in all areas of Fiji.”The PM said: “The SODELPA says that she will restore the power of the chiefs and remove equal distribution of lease monies. She should know that a chief’s mana is not based on receiving lease money. It is based on looking after your people. It means caring and loving your people not taking away their fair share of money. What’s more, the direct distribution of lease money is improving the lives of ordinary commoner Fijians, empowering them to take charge of their own destiny. We can already see it leading to economic growth as ordinary people take greater ownership of their economic resources and capabilities.“She also says that she will restore the FAB scholarship scheme and the multi-ethnic scholarship programme – a divided way of looking at building national capacity. As a previous Minister for Education, she should understand that more Fijian youths than ever before now have access to tertiary education under the new toppers scholarship and Government loan scheme. To revert to the old system would rob so many students around the country of the opportunity to pursue their dreams with a university education.“It would also mean going back to that system that lacked transparency where you accessed scholarships depending many times on who you were or who you knew. She is noticeably silent on my Government’s policy of free primary and secondary education. She is notably silent on the subsidised bus fares and free text books that we offer. I also note that she never made any such progress or put in place such initiatives when she was Minister for Education.”Ro Teimumu said: “Recognising the importance of giving as many of our students fair and equal opportunity for higher level tertiary education, the SODELPA-led multi-party government will reinstate the FAB scholarship scheme and the multi-ethnic scholarship programme for eligible students from low income families

The PM said: “Her comments about bringing God back into our national life are frankly offensive. Is she saying that God has been absent from our lives? Is she saying that God has not been in Fiji? This is an insult to all believing men and women of our country. God is central to our national life and no Fijian is being prevented from worshipping privately or publicly.“And our new Constitution guarantees religious freedom – for every Fijian to choose for themselves. The Secular State ensures that the Government of the day does not force one denomination or one faith on anyone and at the same time promotes religious freedom for all.”Ro Teimumu said: “They see no place for God in their 2013 Constitution. They made this decision without the permission of the people and then declared that it had our approval. Let me, therefore, give this undertaking. If you give SODELPA victory in the general elections, our very first action will be to take steps to restore God to His rightful place in our country’s supreme law.”The PM said: The 2013 Constitution is set in stone and can only be changed through a vote of three-quarters of the members of our new Parliament and a referendum with three-quarters of registered voters in support. So for Ro Teimumu to speak about changing the Constitution after the election ignores that fact that a very careful, detailed and transparent process will have to be undertaken.“It cannot be changed at the whim of SODELPA or any other party and to suggest otherwise is misleading and irresponsible. I know they are used to the idea of doing whatever they like when in government but the rules have changed. We are all bound to uphold the Constitution: the Military, the Judiciary, the Executive and the Legislature. A seat in Parliament nor a simple majority in Parliament does not give a person or a political party the authority to subvert the supreme law of our land.”Ro Teimumu said their first legislative action would be to revoke all current restrictive decrees on fundamental freedoms and political and civic rights.The PM said she was surrounded by other political leaders “with whom the whole country knows she has nothing in common except their opposition to his Government’s reforms to empower ordinary Fijians.”

“It is a coalition of the hypocrites – the same tired old political faces who brought Fiji to its knees in the first place through their petty squabbling and division and now supposedly joining hands. They are united only by their determination to wind back the clock, to reject the advances of the past seven years and restore their own privileged positions at the expense of ordinary Fijians.“This marriage of convenience and without any principle by the NFP leader and his officials is a direct affront to the founders of NFP (AD Patel, Siddiq Koya and James Madhavan) who always pushed for a common roll, fought for the rights of all Fijians under the notion of common and equal citizenry and the principle of “one person, one vote, one value”. These lot have lost their way. Of course the leader of the Labour who is well known for his chameleon behaviour simply to stay in power at all costs is in bed with the very people he accused of being racist and corrupt only a few years ago.“It beggars belief that these old politicians can regard ordinary Fijians as being so stupid to see this alliance as anything more than a total sham – a sham which involves fear-mongering and not giving the full facts. I certainly believe in the intelligence of the Fijian people to see through this farce when it comes to polling day.”

"The PM said: The 2013 Constitution is set in stone and can only be changed through a vote of three-quarters of the members of our new Parliament and a referendum with three-quarters of registered voters in support. So for Ro Teimumu to speak about changing the Constitution after the election ignores that fact that a very careful, detailed and transparent process will have to be undertaken."

Wrong. The 2013 Constitution is written in mud. It was written without full and free consultation with the people. It was never ratified by the people. It was enacted illegally by this government without meeting the constitutional amendment procedures for the 1997 Constitution, which remains the true law of the land. If this regime can change the true Constitution through such an illegal process, how can it now claim that its phony constitution is somehow sacrosanct?

Why is a "very careful, detailed and transparent process" now needed to change a phony law that this regime threw together without first undertaking a very careful, detailed and transparent process of its own?

The opposition should fight this election on the basis of the Constitution. We support it. The regime betrayed it, and without the participation of the people, Its new constitution doesn't mean shit.

Now that we will be hearing a lot of stuff from the campaigns, can all the media in Fiji periodically publish fact-checking articles doing fact-checking on what these parties say.

This practice has been around in other countries and Fiji should embrace it too. It will help the public discern the truth from the nonsense in every statement that will be bandied around by these parties.

Please begin with VB's recent statement against Ro Teimumu.

Sarauta mada na lazy/inadequate journalism and hold these politicians to account for all their statements.

Its obvious that the Illegal PM Bainimarama's rantings reveal a man who is so out of touch with reality ( eg 65% Poverty in Fiji. If you dont believe it, Go Check the rubbish Dump in Labasa and come back report who is living there now.)And also clueless to the realities of life.

Here he is talking about "scholarships given only to the elite"AND YET HE HAS FORGOTTEN that he himself was given a "SCHOLARSHIP" to study overseas.

AUSTRALIAN public servants can learn nothing from Fiji's bureaucracy, says a Fijian academic expelled from the country and now based in Canberra.Foreign Minister Julie Bishop's meeting a fortnight ago to repair relations with the country ruled by Commodore Frank Bainimarama included a low-key public servant exchange program between the two nations.But, said Australian National University's Professor Brij Lal, Canberra bureaucrats will learn nothing in Suva where the heads of departments are military men.''Their presence at the top stifles process,'' Professor Lal said.''They're not accountable to the public service commission but report straight to the commodore.''If you write to any civil servant asking them for an answer, you won't get an answer. Everyone is scared of putting an answer down on paper - it's the fear factor.''If there's a genuine openness to reinvigorate the Fijian public service, unaffected by dictation from the top, that's good.''Commodore Bainimarama, the son of civil servants, has himself had first-hand experience of the public service.Once, in 2002, he even reportedly attended courses in leadership and change management and policy planning analysis.But after his 2006 coup, he sacked Public Service Commission chairman Stuart Huggett and there were unconfirmed reports at the time that Mr Huggett was assaulted.In 2009 Fiji expelled Australia's top public servant in the country, high commissioner James Batley.Fijian-born Professor Lal - now an Australian citizen - was expelled from his country after criticising the decision. Fiji last year refused entry to Australia's proposed high commissioner, Margaret Twomey.The Department of Foreign Affairs says Fiji's economy and living standards have been affected by the 2006 coup, particularly because regime supporters and military leaders have been appointed to boards.Since the coup, Fiji's economy has been stagnant with an annual growth rate of just 0.7 per cent. This compares with 2.5 per cent growth in the years preceding the coup.It has only been in the past two years that there has been signs of recovery.

@Brij 'the babbler' Lal, hahaha, there is no substance in this article. Must have been a slow day for the Canberra press. Who to turn to on such days but media tarts like professor Brij Lal, who will open toilet doors to get their name and picture in the Australian press.

"THIS IS DEEP WOUNDAIYAZ KAIYUM. BECAUSE OF YOUR EVIL WAYS AND MEANS THE WHOLE MUSLIM FAMILY IN FIJI MAY GRADUALLY INNOCENTLY TORPEDOED BY OTHER RACES. NAME CALLING LIKE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, TALIBAN, AL QAIEDA, PAKISTAN ETC DOES NOT SEAT WELL IN FIJI’S PEACEFUL COMMUNITY LIKE OURS.

Now it is evidently clear that that regime supporters are beginning to feel the heat as we move closer to election. It is always like that because it is the game about your consciousness. To those supporters of this regime we basically understand what is happening inside of you guys. You are actually thinking about your own benefits but inside you are thinking about your children and families. You all know the lies coming out of Voreqe and Khaihum but it is making people like you sick inside.

My simple advise to you and all those regime supporters is to do the right thing ---CROSS THE FLOOR to the COALITION.

Bottom line is that everything founded om LIES, DECEIT,FEAR, REVENGE,MURDER,COVER UP, ETC will be exposed in broad day light and people MUST pay for their own sins.

Yes the COALITION is REAL and the main purpose is to bring perpetrators that took the elected government by force MUST BE EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE and MUST FACE THE CONSEQUENCE AND NOT TRY TO BLAME OTHER PEOPLE.

Why try to act like a child this time when he knows his time is almost over.

NO BODY FORCED VOREQE TO TAKE OVER THE GOVERNMENT BY FORCE BUT HE HIMSELF.

The information on the ground is that all Kaiviti including his army officers will vote for SODELPA. People must learn from the past that Kai Viti will always protect their culture, tradition, land,church,vanua and their chiefs and people.

USP’s Vice Chancellor and President, Professor Rajesh Chandra, often boasts about USP as model for the region. The problem is that since Chandra became Vice Chancellor, USP staff management are more rotten than before. Making the mess are Vice Chancellor Rajesh Chandra, USP Council Chairman (Ikbal Janif) and Deputy Chair (Mrs Fekita Utoikamanu).

Janif is in debt to Chandra, who helped elect Janif, with no university degree, as Chairman of USP Council against far more qualified Solomon Islander with a PhD. Janif won the election by only one vote because VC Rajesh Chandra voted for him. Question 1: Why USP Deputy Chair of Council (Mrs Fekita Utoikamanu) reviews VC Chandra’s performance, when she has conflict of interest; her husband (Siosiua Utoikanu) depends on VC for appointment as Head of the PICPA at USP.

Question 2: How Anjeela Jokhan (a loyal supporter of Chandra) was appointed as Associate Professor and Dean of FSTE when all Heads of Schools at FSTE and all official referees were negative and Jokhan was not a professor? Did VC Chandra irregularly appoint extra referees to give favorable references for Jokhan?

Question 3: How Drew Alliburton (husband of Professor Susan Kelly, former Deputy VC) was appointed at FBE when Screening Committee concluded he was not appointable?

Question 5: What circumstances lay behind the resignation of bright senior management such as Adi Eci Nabalarua (Pro VC and iTaukei academic), Munif (best Chief Financial Officer USP ever had), and Dr Michael Gregory (Pro VC). Why did all of them join the Fiji National University instead of staying at the region’s “premier university”?

Question 6: Why Deputy VC Professor Susan Kelly resign suddenly? Is it true she discovered sexual relationship between a USP staff member and a female student who was later allegedly murdered, while her husband’s complaint to USP was ignored (husband later allegedly committed suicide). Why VC Chandra, Janif and Fekita did not respond to Kelly’s complaints? Did USP pay Kelly “to go away” because she found USP was not following rules? (Kelly and Alliburton also joined the FNU after leaving USP).

Question 7: Why the sudden suspension of a very senior and most productive professional staff member, who was not given the opportunity to respond before suspension, and only on alleged complaints from the Finance and Investment Committee?

Question 8: Why this important Finance and Investment Committee at USP, chaired by a director of very minor accounting firm, when many experienced senior accountants with USP experience are ignored (like Jenny Seeto and Naiveli)? Does USP Chairman (Janif) have conflict of interest because this accounting lady leases office space from Janif?

Question 9: Why VC Chandra refused to appoint an eminently qualified and experienced USP Professor as Deputy President, instead of appointing another applicant inferior on all academic and administrative grounds? Was appointment process irregular? The Chairman of the Appointment Committee (Janif) was sick on the day, and instead of postponing the appointment (already delayed for six months), Fekita, not a member of the Appointment Committee, chaired the meeting, and strongly supported the inferior candidate (who happens to be from her own home country, Tonga)? Who asked Fekita to chair this important meeting and were all the Appointment Committee members present?

Question 10: Is USP Council told how much USP spends on one legal company annually to cover up staffing mistakes by VC Chandra? What legal advice was given by this legal company to VC on USP staffing problems?

Voreqe has no political experience but plenty of treasonous experience.

No one will risk their votes on a traitor and his band of corrupt stooges.

What is Bainimarama boasting about when he talks of his reign as the new Fiji?

Do we really want to go through all the rubbish since 2000 until now where he has been a central destabilizing figure who should really be behind bars.

Narcissists like him live a sad and pathetic life of self worship, believing that they are the gift of life for others. Their illness is not helped by fuckwits like Tikoitoga whose bullshit praising labels like being a "David" to the RFMF. Why does Tikoitoga not say something like, "Voreqe, why were you a coward leader running away in the heat of battle? Or, Voreqe is a coward for giving orders to abduct defenseless civilians off the streets and torturing them within the military camp.

Bainimarama only got to where he is through criminal activities. His successors earned their ranks as a reward for criminal activities also.

Where is your political party Voreqe??Where are your cowardly rotten candidates??

@Brij Lal media tart, you are spot on! the good professor bril Lal is beginning to rival his good mate in Canberra, Prof Yukt Saten nandan, in the field of media tarts - seems like both falling over themselves to open toilet doors to get their name and picture in the Australian press!

Can the idiot on March,7 11.28am verify how Govt lost Billions? You just gave open statements without data or facts similarly like Ro.T. This could be provided by any 3rd form student.Alleations with no facts.Similar to an old fart.

Look at a chart of Fiji's economy before and after the coup. The change in trajectory is dramatic, and the difference between the two amounts to billions of dollars. That's not even including the hundreds of millions in lost EU sugar money or in the extra finance payments for which this regime opted just to avoid IMF scrutiny for how it spends the loan money. A number of economists have already estimated Fiji's lost revenues because of the coup in the billions. Sorry that the facts don't fit your opinions.

The Chiefs who supported SRabuka in 1987 have kicked him out now for good.He was really used.But the same people are there,the same close supporters and hangers on.You can see them attending the rallys and meetings,the same people who held this country at ransom in 1987.Its about time to have a civil disturbance or riot,this would enable arms and bullets to flood the country ,like Syria then its killing time.Let these bastards pay for what they did in 1987,all of them,survival of the fittest,the strongest will be warlords taking over from chiefs,like Somalia,Afghanistan all the chiefs and civil leaders wiped out,those who fled overseas will have contract killers paid to eliminate them,yes contract killers are available overseas,the mobs hire them also.That is the path sodelpa is taking us to.

So true. He seems to be egging the illegal regime to kill Fijians under the cover of a riot that it will then blame on the opposition in order to cancel the elections. Boy, some of these regime supporters are really twisted phucks.

Anon@5:53pm...Listen up pal-Rabukadid not get his order from any Fijian Chief,he pulled the friekencoup on his own? How many times dowe have to tell you about this fact? But if you don't want to believe anyone than you go right ahead and keep on telling the whole world whatever you think?Butyeah,if Rabuka had failed, i wouldhave been the person doing it? Would Nehru allowed a white Guyto run India during his reign inthe 50s? I doubt it! Would Ghandiallow the White English guy tobe leader of a political party inIndia, during India struggle forindependent? I doubt it!Seriously,you want me to step aside and just allow your ass to walk overmy body and take what ever youlike without a please&thank you?Middle finger to you pal?

prof warden narsey asked prof mahen dah reddy why he never opened his mouth when his recommended minimum wage was set aside by the military government of bai-kai?the answer is very simple : to open the mouth the arse hole must be closed tight. but when you work for the military thug rulers the arse hole is always open wide. it’s a case of riding the tiger. you can’t disembark because you will be phucked. that’s why Mahen dah can’t open his mouth. he can’t criticised his political masters.an academic who can’t speak his mind freely is an academic who is phucked.

ANON: March 9, 2014 at 5:53 PMYOUR PROBLEM THAT YOU KNOW NOT OF RABUKA’S FIRST STEP TO THE FINAL STEP OF HIS COUP OF 1987. IT ALL WENT WELL IN THE FEW YEARS OF HIS PRIME MINISTERSHIP THEN THE SLIDE TO THE BOTTOM BEGAN. ASK S.L.R. WHY!!? WHY!!? ASK S.LR. TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH ABOUT THE ORIGIN OF THE COUP. ASK S.L.R. WHO WERE THE PEOPLE, IN SECRET PRAYER SESSION AT HIS FATHER’S HOME AT SHALIMAR STREET, PRESENT IN PLOTTING FOR THE COUP OF 1987? ASK S.L.R. WHO WERE THE PEOPLE WHO WERE PRESENT AT THE HOME OF REVEREND TOMASI RAKIVI AT VALELEVU PLOTTING FOR THE 1987 COUP? ASK S.L.R AGAIN WHO WERE THE PEOPLE PRESENT AT FILIPE BOLE’S HOME AT BURETA STREET PLOTTING FOR THE 1987 COUP? THOSE WERE FEW SEQUENCES OF EVENTS AND PLEASE DISTANCE YOURSELF FROM LITTLE KNOWLEDGE AND HELP YOURSELF IN CAMPAIGNING FOR RABUKA IF HE WISHES TO STAND AS AN INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.

ANON: March 9, 2014 at 5:53 PM YOU INSTIGATING RIOT AND VIOLENCE ON THE STREETS TO PROVE YOUR END OF ANGER AND CALLING FOR ANOTHER MILITARY COUP. I SUGGEST THAT YOU TRY FEW TRIAL RUNS TO YOUR OWN FAMILY AT HOME AND IN THE VILLAGE AND LET SEE THE RESULT OF YOUR OWN FAILURE OR SUCCESS. IF YOU FAILED KEEP ON TRYING AGAIN UNTIL YOU LOST ALL YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS.

FINALLY, THE FIJIAN RACE HAD SPOKEN AT THE GENERAL ELECTION THAT YEAR TO TERMINATE S.L.R. PRIME MINISTERSHIP AND ANONYMOUS: March 9, 2014 at 5:53 PM PLEASE ASK HIM WHY!!? REMEMBER MISTER, IT WAS NOT ONE OF THOSE WHOM YOU FALSELY ACCUSED WHO WERE AT THE FTA HALL MEETING THAT SATURDAY THAT CAUSED 1987 COUP EXCEPT 2 MEN. RABUKA LOST IN THE GENERAL ELECTION BECAUSE FIJIAN VOTERS DISLIKED HIM OF HIS NEW FOUND ATTITUDES AT THAT TIME AND NOT BY THOSE IN THE SODELPA’S MEETING HELD AT THE FTA HALL ON SATURDAY.

SAYING ABOUT WARLORDS, SIR, BEFORE YOU WERE BORN THE FIJIAN RACE ALREADY HAVE ITS OWN WARLORDS KNOWN AS THE VUNIVALU AND QARANIVALU AND MAYBE YOU WHO DO NOT HAVE ONE. SORRY IF I DID MISS THE MARK HERE.

THE FORGIVE AND FORGET TRADITIONAL PATHS ARE OPEN TO ALL OF US FIJIAN AND OTHER RACES, WHO WITH THE STRONG WILL, CLEAN, RELIGIOUS AND HUMBLE HEARTS THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE THAT WALK. I HAVE NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT THE ROKO TUI DREKETI WILL CALL ALL THE CHIEFS AND VUNIVALUS TO GET TOGETHER TO MEET AND HUG THE ONE OR MANY WHO DECIDED TO ASK FOR FORGIVENESS FOR THE SAKE OF PEACE, HARMONY AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS FIJI’S DESTINY FOR THE FUTURE.

I APPEAL TO ALL OF YOU BLOGGERS WHO AGAINST TAUKEI KEI WAIKATAKATA, BRIG GEN. MOSESE TIKOITOGA AND COLONEL KOLINIWAI, PLEASE GIVE THESE GENTLEMEN THE CHANCE AND SPACES TO PROVE THEIR LEADERSHIP QUALITY. THEY PASSED THEIR FIRST BY RETURNING ALL UNITS BACK TO BARRACK.

THESE GENTLEMEN ARE NOT NECESSARILY THE ENEMY. GIVE THEM TIME TO DO THE RIGHT THING. THEY MUST ACT CAREFULLY AND QUICKLY, THOUGH, BECAUSE THE COMMODORE'S SPIES ARE EVERYWHERE AND THEY WILL BE DISMISSED SOON, IN ANY CASE, AND PROBABLY ARRESTED.

Anonymous: March 10, 2014 at 6:41 PMFEAR NOT MY GOODSIR, ALL HAVE SPIES AROUND TOO. WRONG STEP WRONG MOVE AND WRONG MOVE WRONG STEPS AND DEATH IS THE ANSWER. THE RULE OF THE GAME IS TO "PLAY IT CLEAN AND PLAY IT RIGHT THE TRUTH WINS AND ALL WILL STAY ALIVE"

TRUTH NEVER TELL LIES AND LIES WILL NEVER TELL THE TRUTH. TREASON AND MURDER ARE FELONIOUS CRIME THAT WAS EXECUTED BY MR. AUTHORITY AND YET HE IS NOT MR. RESPONSIBLE, BUT THE ONE WHO DELEGATED THAT AUTHORITY IS THE ONE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT AND NEED TO BE ARRESTED. IT IS A WAITING GAME AND DOES NOT DEPENDS ON HOW QUICK IT REQUIRED BECAUSE MR.RULE IS CONTROLING THE GAME.

GIVE THESE GENTLEMEN THE FREEDOM TO PLAY IT BY THE RULE, AND THEY WILL DO SO WITH THE CIVILIAN PRIME MINISTER BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL ACCOUNTABLE TO THE VANUA AND LOTU RIGHT NOW.

I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT, BROTHER. I FEAR THESE GENTLEMEN DON'T HAVE LONG. BUT IF THEY LAST THROUGH THE ELECTIONS, MAYBE THEY WILL YET DO THE RIGHT THING. MR. RULE IS WORKING AGAINST THEM. HE ONLY CONTROLS THE GAME AS LONG AS THEY LET HIM.
